A Forum member from the UK is flying to Boston just to buy a Mark Twain Forum
T-shirt. All members are welcome to do the same, or you can simply send a
check to avoid airfare, passports, customs hassles and jet lag. See complete
instructions below.

I realize that most of us are not exactly heading into T-shirt weather (I
share Mark Twain's business acumen and sense of market timing) however, Mark
Twain Forum T-shirts make wonderful holiday gifts--and each shirt sold means
a donation to the Mark Twain Project!

Here is the original posting for those who may have missed it the first time
